Concerned Tennessee Baptists Awaken

After several months of peace and quiet, my friends over at Concerned Tennessee Baptists have published 12 new stories leading up to the November Tennessee Baptist Convention meeting. You can read them all, here. We'll talk amongst ourselves here in the Refugee Baptist camp before taking issue with discussing the CTB articles. After reading the articles, add a comment here on which of the dozen draws your interest the most...don't be shy now.

Aside from the poor writing of the article, "What's in a Word," (can you make more mistakes than made in the first sentence?), I am intriqued most by the motivation behind the articles on Tennessee Temple.

Is CTB moving to replace Belmont with TTU in the triumvirate of Tennessee Baptist Schools?

One more comment if that is okay. I do not see anyone discussing being unified to meet needs of people in communities. I do not see any comments about addressing social justice issues. Why don't people interpret the Old Testament prophets literally and cry about injustice for the poor and oppressed? Why is it just about "we are right, we have to protect the Bible and God from those ignorant liberal people who obviously hate Jesus and don't want to love people like we do."

I promise to cease commenting now.
